[perl #119413] +.IP \(bu 4 +B::Concise has been upgraded from version 0.95 to 0.95_01. +.Sp +This fixes a bug in dumping unexpected SPECIALs. +.IP \(bu 4 +English has been upgraded from version 1.06 to 1.06_01. This fixes an +error about the performance of \f(CW\*(C`$\`\*(C'\fR, \f(CW$&\fR, and \f(CW\*(C`$\*(Aq\*(C'\fR. +.IP \(bu 4 +File::Glob has been upgraded from version 1.20 to 1.20_01. +.SH Documentation +.IX Header "Documentation" +.SS "Changes to Existing Documentation" +.IX Subsection "Changes to Existing Documentation" +.IP \(bu 4 +perlrepository has been restored with a pointer to more useful pages. +.IP \(bu 4 +perlhack has been updated with the latest changes from blead. +.SH "Selected Bug Fixes" +.IX Header "Selected Bug Fixes" +.IP \(bu 4 +Perl 5.18.1 introduced a regression along with a bugfix for lexical subs. +Some B::SPECIAL results from B::CV::GV became undefs instead. This broke +Devel::Cover among other libraries. This has been fixed. [perl #119351] +.IP \(bu 4 +Perl 5.18.0 introduced a regression whereby \f(CW\*(C`[:^ascii:]\*(C'\fR, if used in the same +character class as other qualifiers, would fail to match characters in the +Latin\-1 block. This has been fixed. [perl #120799] +.IP \(bu 4 +Perl 5.18.0 introduced a regression when using \->SUPER::method with AUTOLOAD +by looking up AUTOLOAD from the current package, rather than the current +package’s superclass. This has been fixed. [perl #120694] +.IP \(bu 4 +Perl 5.18.0 introduced a regression whereby \f(CW\*(C`\-bareword\*(C'\fR was no longer +permitted under the \f(CW\*(C`strict\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`integer\*(C'\fR pragmata when used together. This +has been fixed. [perl #120288] +.IP \(bu 4 +Previously PerlIOBase_dup didn't check if pushing the new layer succeeded +before (optionally) setting the utf8 flag. This could cause +segfaults-by-nullpointer. This has been fixed. +.IP \(bu 4 +A buffer overflow with very long identifiers has been fixed. +.IP \(bu 4 +A regression from 5.16 in the handling of padranges led to assertion failures +if a keyword plugin declined to handle the second ‘my’, but only after creating +a padop. +.Sp +This affected, at least, Devel::CallParser under threaded builds. +.Sp +This has been fixed. +.IP \(bu 4 +The construct \f(CW\*(C`$r=qr/.../; /$r/p\*(C'\fR is now handled properly, an issue which +had been worsened by changes 5.18.0. [perl #118213] +.SH Acknowledgements +.IX Header "Acknowledgements" +Perl 5.18.2 represents approximately 3 months of development since Perl +5.18.1 and contains approximately 980 lines of changes across 39 files from 4 +authors. +.PP +Perl continues to flourish into its third decade thanks to a vibrant +community of users and developers. The following people are known to have +contributed the improvements that became Perl 5.18.2: +.PP +Craig A. Berry, David Mitchell, Ricardo Signes, Tony Cook. +.PP +The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically +generated from version control history. In particular, it does not include +the names of the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to +the Perl bug tracker. +.PP +Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules +included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for +helping Perl to flourish. +.PP +For a more complete list of all of Perl's historical contributors, please see +the \fIAUTHORS\fR file in the Perl source distribution. +.SH "Reporting Bugs" +.IX Header "Reporting Bugs" +If you find what you think is a bug, you might check the articles recently +posted to the comp.lang.perl.misc newsgroup and the perl bug database at +http://rt.perl.org/perlbug/ . There may also be information at +http://www.perl.org/ , the Perl Home Page. +.PP +If you believe you have an unreported bug, please run the perlbug program +included with your release. Be sure to trim your bug down to a tiny but +sufficient test case. Your bug report, along with the output of \f(CW\*(C`perl \-V\*(C'\fR, +will be sent off to perlbug@perl.org to be analysed by the Perl porting team. +.PP +If the bug you are reporting has security implications, which make it +inappropriate to send to a publicly archived mailing list, then please send it +to perl5\-security\-report@perl.org. This points to a closed subscription +unarchived mailing list, which includes all the core committers, who will be +able to help assess the impact of issues, figure out a resolution, and help +co-ordinate the release of patches to mitigate or fix the problem across all +platforms on which Perl is supported. Please only use this address for +security issues in the Perl core, not for modules independently distributed on +CPAN. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.IX Header "SEE ALSO" +The \fIChanges\fR file for an explanation of how to view exhaustive details on +what changed. +.PP +The \fIINSTALL\fR file for how to build Perl. +.PP +The \fIREADME\fR file for general stuff. +.PP +The \fIArtistic\fR and \fICopying\fR files for copyright information. |
